Repertoire: high 80s fastball, average curveball, cutter, changeup Simmons is a control pitcher with a solid repertoire. Scouts believe he needs to add some velocity and an improved feel for pitching in order to improve his draftability. If he does he could jump from the supplemental first round to the middle of the first round.
